The only correct answer is Sonic 1 It's gimmick was being a unique physics-based platformer that was so revolutionary, we're all still here 35 years later

I'm still convinced if somehow 2d sonic didn't exist and u showed this to sonic twt they'd say it would never work for an official game cuz skipped over all the level design

Sonic 1 lowkey underrated, I even like labyrinth zone.

Ehh idk I feel like Sonic 2 takes advantage of Sonic 1's main gimmick a lot better

Sonic fangames have environmental geometry based momentum down so well nowadays that the boost button needed to compensate for sonic team's lack of decent level design is now surplus. I don't expect to ever see boost back if I ever want to take modern sonic's gameplay seriously.

if marble zone and labyrinth were more interesting design wise this game wouldnt have aged at all

Ah yes. You're playing Spring Yard Zone in the way that makes it my favorite Sonic 1 stage.

Sonic 2 did it better

The way Sonic stood out from the regular walk and jump platformers with something truly unique, and full of color and style was awesome

try this on the original guarantee it wont work

Did you have any mods on here while recording or can Sonic really just go that fast sometimes in this game?

Sonic 1 did it for 2 and a half zones, most of the game is a very standard platforming with some ramps

Wise answer

Thats not the true sonic 1... wheres the speed cap? MM?
